Ok,
I got another one - now with picture! ;)
It is labeled
DDU-4-
7992
The picture can be seen here:

Wild guessing.... resistornetwork? capacitornetwork (was something like
that around?)?
Greetings, Oliver

Ah - running ddu4 +delay +line through google the following pdf was shown

Looks like you where right ;) Regardingg the naming convention showed in
this pdf 992 could indicate 992ns but 992 sounds "suspicious"

Looks like a delay line to me.

I can't say I recognise the specific device shown, but sometimes delay lines
were packaged like that.
(Guess: [Digital|Discrete] Delay Unit - 4 uS ?).
(Pulse transformers also were put in such packages in the mid-late 70's, but
they are generally associated with core memory drivers.)

That logo belongs to Data Delay Devices, who are still in business:
<http://www.datadelay.com/>
Their part number index lists the DDU4:
<http://www.datadelay.com/asp/alphanum.asp>
With a datasheet here:
<http://www.datadelay.com/datasheets/ddu4.pdf>
But there's nothing about a DDU-4-7992 in there at all. Based on the naming
convention, I'd be inclined to think it was a 7-output delay line, with a
total delay of 992 nanoseconds. 992ns seems a bit dubious though.
It might be worth emailing their tech support department (email address is at
the top of the part number index) and asking them about the meaning of the
'7992' part number suffix.

Yeah... done this right now :)

I'm pretty sure this is a delay line. Is this a XT board?

Not with a card release (black plastic thing just visible on the left
of the card).
Hey Oliver, how about posting a photo of the whole card? I'm curious
as to what bus this thing might reside on...
Thanks,
Chuck

I'm not Oliver, but it looks like it's this board:
<http://pics.pofo.de/gallery/v/S8000/S8000_boards/ecc_front.jpg.html>
The delay line is 5th IC down, 2nd from the left.
Based on the rest of the photos in the "S8000" album (and the screen-print on
the PCB), I'm inclined to think it's a Zilog System 8000 (S8000) ECC
controller board.

Good digging up - and all is completly right ;)
I just thought that posting a photo where the IC can be seen without
having to look at the big version of the photo (bandwith... ;)) suits
better...
